A Pair Of Glasses, A Swan, And An Origami Clock
Nature is calling,
your hips swaying.
A light snowfall takes
place in a winter
breeze.
The footprints of a doe
and her fawn grace the
land in fragments.
Broken bits of
grass poke out
from where they
were last seen, in
brown, sticky
patches.
A moose,
a rabbit,
a raccoon—
resting, rejuvenating,
saving their strength.
Birds chirp,
wolves howl.
I close my eyes
and know I’ve
made it.
Did you make it
to Italy, sparrow?
For I am yet to
make

A Strange Pair
There was an old man from Fargo,
With a wife whose name was Margo.
They were quite the pair
Neither had much hair
They traveled the world with no cargo!

A Pair Of Hearts
Mushy insides tend to harden up
if all your oxygen is stopped.
Allow yourself to fall, feel.
All your computations
are as dry as math.
It’s not a sum
when it’s a
pair of
hearts.

Imagine - I Do Not Own a Pair of Pajamas
I do not own a pair of pajamas
In winter, what do I do
Do I pile on the covers
or do I lie there and shiver

PALEO PAIR
PALEO PAIR
Hands rapturously
slashing satori
Bang !
Light released filter down
bats brushed skin to
fly knowingly low
then water gushed
through cracks
snakes spiders scorpions
were our toes
stones spoke in bugle
sound as Sun set in
whirlwinds
the cave was nowhere
yet everywhere
Beethoven’s symphonies
were shadows
future written on our
vacant palms
but to prior walk with
Harry the Strandloper
was an unspoken
intent by ONE for
beloved

a fine pair
under a sullen moon
silence hovered
my mind meandered
the two soon
inextricably

A Pair Of Shoes
Love is like a pair of shoes
If it does not fits you
You feel discomfort and in pain
If it fits you, you're at peace
You can walk and run with ease
The feeling of comfort
Leads you to where you want to be
If there are steeps to climb
It's easy for your feet to move
And arrive your destination with success.

Dorothy
There once was Glenda with slippers to share.
Dorothy liked better Prada devil’s pair.
She ducked behind Oz’s curtain
To do what is uncertain,
But the Lion put a crib in his lair.

A FAIR PAIR
A FAIR PAIR
Willy the worm would want to wiggle
Just a joke joining in with joyful jiggle
Gaity I guess, giving guffaw or giggle
Delighted to dig and dive down deep
Why one would wish to walk or weep
Continually checking, caution to keep
As surface security seldom seems safe
Worried to wander as a whining waif
Choices change, yet chancing to chafe
Stop

LOVELY PAIR TOGETHER
They were lovely girls in the neighborhood
To their family, they stayed pretty good
Learning to trust God --- in faith and in creed
As they shared and cared, showing kindness’ deed.
As daughters of parents, serving as light
They respected Dad and Mom with delight
Regarding them as guardians by their side
Grateful for their protective loving guide.
They are sweet ladies,
